Should I Answer?
What features does Should I Answer? use to identify spam calls?
The app displays a clear on-screen pop-up with labels like 'SPAM' or 'TELEMARKETER' in red, often including the number of user reports. It also allows you to create rules, such as auto-rejecting 'Unknown Number' calls, and maintain a personal blocklist for persistent numbers.
How does the community reporting system work in Should I Answer?
The app uses a crowd-sourced database where users report spam numbers they receive. When a call comes in, it checks this database and shows you how many other users have reported that number, helping you decide whether to answer.
What should I do if a spam call slips through and isn't identified?
You can report the number directly within the app after the call. This adds it to the community database, helping to protect you and other users from that specific number in the future.
Why might the call identification pop-up appear late or be delayed?
This can occasionally happen due to background app restrictions or system optimizations on your phone. Try checking the app's battery settings to ensure it's not being put to sleep, and make sure it has all necessary permissions to run in the foreground.
How does Should I Answer? compare to other free call blockers?
Unlike some free blockers that push premium upgrades, Should I Answer? is completely free with only non-intrusive banner ads. It stands out for its clear, community-driven pop-up warnings and effective auto-reject rules, providing robust protection without cost.
